I was wheeling hells revenge like june 12th and I let a guy in a RZR pass me and he said "DID YOU SEE THAT GUY DO HELLS GATE IN A STOCK F250?" This must have been it lmao. Good stuff
That's a lot of truck to bring up that crack. It's way more impressive when you're standing in it and realize how steep it really is. Pretty impressive!
Not really. You are just used to seeing a bunch of tryhards with money in their jeeps overbuild the shit out of things so they can tackle "big obstacles".
This is a true testament to the statement that off road ability has more to do with the driver than with the vehicle. I bet that most of the people with tricked out jeeps wouldn't be able to do this. Great driver.
Go watch junkyard digs off road challenge. Guys on there using beat to shit trucks from the 90s back with regular tires and less than 1000$ put into them. Proving your point
I did this in a bone stock TJ Rubicon ten years or so ago. No spotter. I am not there to let some one else tell me how to drive unless I get myself in trouble. I did Hells revenge. Poison spider and some others alone. I camped out there and did some at night.
Fun fact: those were all bystanders I did not know. My friends I traveled with mostly stayed silent and the action speak for itself. The naysayers were definitely the icing in this video.
I'm a flantlander who wants to wheel out west and there's no way I'm doing that without decent time behind the wheel and probably still not in my stock f150. Kudos to driver and spotter!
I've got to give 90% of the credit to the spotter in these climbs. I'm not taking away from the driver. He kept cool and did an excellent job following the instructions. I just wonder if anyone ever does these extremely difficult climbs without anyone helping them. I'm stressed just watching it and imagining if I was in the driver seat, lol. I could never do it. Kudos to you guys.
Never having walked the trail one could never do it with out help A. Theres no view of what your driving over 90 percent of the way up, that hood is in the air blocking everything and the ground slopes down further beneath what you can see from driver seat, but there are great drivers out there who are one with their machine and "obstacle" just isn't in the dictionary....

I had a bit of deja vu at the beginning of this video when I heard you say "basically a bone-stock F-250". Then I realized I was standing right next to you when you said it! I was the guy flying the drone. 😆
In a situation like that if you don't have a locker, the trick is to ride the brake enough to stop the free-wheel. Yes, it takes some skill to modulate it but using that technique has saved me more than once.
Video or tv, flattens landscapes out quite a bit. You wouldn’t want to start tumbling up top because you probably wouldn’t stop until you hit the bottom. Great stuff, Ford, good driver and spotter team. It is amazing what 4x4’s can actually do.

When one of the guys stomped on it, I heard from my car from a good distance and it sounded like a monster. I will achieve earning a 6.2 in the next couple of years. It's funny, my '03 F-150 5.4 2-valve sound damn good from the low end and thinks it's a big block!! LOL Ford is #1 because they have the best variety, and plain out, do not go away for nothing.

Wouldn't mind a old square body. But don't want nothing to do with any new GM/chevys.
@@kregadeth5562 I'm a big Ford guy and to me the 4.6 is the worst thing Ford ever did. If you knew how long that new pushrod 7.3 had been on paper before they gave it the green light, you would be upset. 4.6 is physically bigger than my BBFs (460s) with way less displacement. Terrible. They should have just put updated heads on the 351 windsor engines. There is zero need for OHC in cop cars and work trucks. I'm so glad that engine is long gone.
I have an F 150 same cab configuration with a leveling kit and 33s. I wouldn't have done it. Now I had an 01 Ranger ex cab lifted 6 inches with 33s and 4:10.1 limited slips and 5 speed auto than I never did get stuck. It was the perfect wheelbase and height.
Last time i heard everyone was moving here. Trust me a real Texan will not leave Texas. Not sure where you're from, you might be getting all the liberals that can't make it here from Commiefornia.
People spend $10k+ to mod their vehicles to accomplish this while also making them terrible vehicles for daily driving or highway driving. And a more-or-less stock F250 shows them how it's done before cruising the interstate home then hauling for the next job.

0:22 “Oh I’m from Texas so I’m not scared”
Hell ya he ain’t scared. Nothing to be scared of when you got Texas blood flowing through your veins 💪
Yup, everyone likes to talk shit about Texans. You know you're better when you're always fighting off jealous haters. Especially ones that are just sitting there, not taking on the challenge.
Never give up! It also helps when there's a good spotter on the trail!
That was really impressive. No way I'm attempting that.
I did this with a 1974 stock CJ5 back in 1986 in low lock 1st gear and basically idled through it. I know the truck is much heavier. Good effort on behalf of the driver and FOMOCO.
I've got the same truck! Good drivin' man! Way to not get excited and break stuff.
whether he did it for fun or for work he has my respect
Ford should use parts of this for a new commercial.
Gotta love ford...
I’m trying. My 4.6 liter is making it really hard. Lol
Or parts of this truck for their new ones...cause they are complete rust buckets...Ford is complete trash...

Good and bad in everything I guess.
Some have had good luck with em and others haven't.
Personally I never had any luck what's so ever with GM products. Got a silverado now I'd like to run into a telephone phone. Been junk since I got it. If it isn't one thing it's another.
GM are okay if ya like working on em all the time. lol
I've had good luck with ford and dodge and I'll take either or.
Got a powerstroke right now I use for work. 07 6.0. Got 340k on it and runs like a top. Egr been deleted. No programmer... Which is probably why it's lasted as long as it has and hasn't gave me any problems.
Old school chevys ain't bad. Wouldn't mind a old square body. But don't want nothing to do with any new GM/chevys.
@@kregadeth5562 I'm a big Ford guy and to me the 4.6 is the worst thing Ford ever did. If you knew how long that new pushrod 7.3 had been on paper before they gave it the green light, you would be upset. 4.6 is physically bigger than my BBFs (460s) with way less displacement. Terrible. They should have just put updated heads on the 351 windsor engines. There is zero need for OHC in cop cars and work trucks. I'm so glad that engine is long gone.
A long wheelbase vehicle like this always feels so much more stable on steep climbs.
Facts. 💯
im not from the states but that definitely deserves a hell yea brother
I have an F 150 same cab configuration with a leveling kit and 33s. I wouldn't have done it. Now I had an 01 Ranger ex cab lifted 6 inches with 33s and 4:10.1 limited slips and 5 speed auto than I never did get stuck. It was the perfect wheelbase and height.
"Im FrOm TeXaS, i AiNt Scared." Mad because hes not from TEXAS. Lol
can you guys please stay in your own state if its so good why do you have to move to ours?
Last time i heard everyone was moving here. Trust me a real Texan will not leave Texas. Not sure where you're from, you might be getting all the liberals that can't make it here from Commiefornia.
Sometimes it takes a Texan. 🤠
@@yuron8210 you got it all mixed up bud, Texas population is growing by the day. Stay in your lane
Perfect example of what a great driver and spotter can do with any vehicle!! Nice!
This is the most insane thing I've seen! That was ridiculous!!!!
Tires are evreything man and that spotter did a amazing job. Even through he made it. It woulda been hell for me to do that to my equipment
FX are highly capable out of the dealers lot
FX4 is nothing but a stupid sticker
@@superdutyscaler6823 skid plates are added on the fx4 model. Fwiw.
@@superdutyscaler6823 locking rear diff, downhill assist, and a tank skid plate actually.
Crowd: you don't have a lift on the truck how you gonna make it up here
Him: cause Texas thats why

Thats definitely impressive . I have a bone stock 1971 F100 short bed 4x4 thats a mountain goat. Its impressed me multiple times
When the welder foreman says you got a tie in at the top of that mountain in 2021
I was thinking this guy definitely has a set of truck nuts and when I didn’t see any I knew he had them on him!
That "I'm from Texas guy" @ 00:22 ain't talking shit now 🤣😂🤣
Good for him proving them wrong 💪
spotter was feeling energized, as he started spotting the man before he even started to climb 😆
People spend $10k+ to mod their vehicles to accomplish this while also making them terrible vehicles for daily driving or highway driving. And a more-or-less stock F250 shows them how it's done before cruising the interstate home then hauling for the next job.
This just proves that any 4x4 can offroad lifted, stock just depends on the driver pure skill is all you need.
TH-cam algorithm has shined on you.
Very nicely done kyle
